A-L, this toner does seem much gentler, so it should not cause any problems for your skin.

When I tried Thayer’s alcohol-free toner, that still ended up irritating my skin, and I suspect it’s because witch hazel extract was the second ingredient. There’s another toner (Nourish Organic’s Dewy Toner) that I’m debating about whether I should try. Witch hazel water (is that different from extract?) is pretty far down the list, and it seems as though there are a lot of good ingredients ahead of it. I’m thinking it might be worth a shot; do you agree?

Here are the ingredients:
Purified Water, Glycerin, Tremella Fuciformis (Mushroom) Extract, Gluconolactone, Allantoin, Panthenol, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice*, Cucumis Sativus (Cucumber) Seed Extract*, Camellia Sinensis (Green Tea)*, Glycyrrhiza Glabra (Licorice) Root*, Chamomilla Recutita (Matricaria) Flower*, Hamamelis Virginiana (Witch Hazel) Leaf Water*, Betaine, Hibiscus Sabdariffa Flower Extract*, Sodium Hyaluronate, Brassica Sophorolipid*, Sorbitan Oleate Decylglucoside Crosspolymer, Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil*, Nasturtium Officinale Flower/Leaf Extract*, Sodium Benzoate, Ascorbic Acid, Ethylhexylglycerin, Phenoxyethanol, Fragrance

I like your advice to judge the formula and not the ingredient. I’ll do that.

Lucila, yes I have tried it and it works fine for me. But everyone’s skin is different so there’s no way of knowing how you will react to witch hazel until you try it.

I still hace doubts about the pixi glow toner because it contains witch hazel but i think i will give it a try. Have you tried it?
